Are we crushing our boys with an outdated education system?Why do so many young men feel bored, disengaged, and misunderstood in school? What if the system isn’t broken—but just not built for them in the first place?In this episode, we dive deep into a powerful and necessary conversation about the struggles boys face in modern education—and what one man is doing to change that. If you’ve ever felt like your son was being shaped to fit a mold that just doesn’t work for him, this one’s for you.Meet Ben Kuiken, a former traditional teacher who asked a simple, bold question: What if we stopped trying to fix boys, and instead fixed the system?From humble beginnings as a fifth-grade teacher to co-founding Anvil Academy, Ben has become a trailblazer in creating hands-on, purpose-driven education specifically designed for boys. With a deep belief in identity, risk, adventure, and real-world learning, Ben is on a mission to forge men—not just students.Quotes:"If a boy knows who they are, if they can answer why they matter, and they can say, here's the audience that I'm living for, this is who gets to write off on my report card - that prepares them for whatever season life throws their way." - Ben Kuiken"We're preparing these kids for a world that isn't even established yet. I don't need to prepare them for a system or something. I need to be able to prepare them for anything." - Ben Kuiken"I believe that I am an adopted son of the King of the universe, and that gives me all the value that I need - that I am unconditionally loved, that I am fully seen, all of my flaws internally and externally." - Ben KuikenKey Takeaways:Reimagine Education at Home: If you're a parent or educator, ask yourself: Is my child being shaped by a system that supports who they are—or suppresses it? Begin by creating space for hands-on learning, curiosity, and risk-taking in your home or classroom.Replace Digital Risk with Real-World Adventure: Boys naturally seek risk, challenge, and consequence. Channel that energy into real-life experiences—like sports, building projects, outdoor adventures, or creative challenges—that have tangible rewards and consequences.Challenge the “This Is How It’s Always Been Done” Mentality: Whether in parenting, teaching, or leadership, ask: Is this method truly working—or just familiar? Be brave enough to try new approaches, even if it means pushback.Start Small, Start Now: Inspired to make a change? Don’t wait for a perfect plan or a crowd of followers. Start with one student, one lesson, one moment of connection. Excellence at a small scale leads to meaningful impact.Conclusion:This conversation with Ben Kuiken reminds us that the future of young men isn’t written by grades, test scores, or outdated systems—it’s forged through identity, purpose, and real-world challenge.Whether you’re a parent, educator, or mentor, the question now is: Are you helping the boys in your life become men—or just helping them behave?Ben’s journey shows us what’s possible when we stop trying to force boys to fit the mold—and instead, build a world that fits their God-given design. The path won’t be easy. It’s not meant to be. But it’s worth it.So take the first step. Be curious. Be bold. And remember—great men aren’t born. They’re forged.

Are you frustrated with a world that rewards credentials over competence? Tired of watching brilliant young minds stuck in systems that stifle creativity, risk-taking, and real-world skills?Ask yourself:What if everything you've been taught about success, education, and impact is wrong?Why do some of the most innovative thinkers remain unrecognized by the very systems they aim to fix?And what happens when someone refuses to play by the rules — and builds their own?Meet Casey Putsch — race car driver, aerospace innovator, YouTuber, and the mastermind behind Genius Garage, a nonprofit reshaping how young people are mentored into greatness. He's not just a "jack of all trades" — he's a Renaissance man who dares to act when most are content to complain.Raised by Depression-era values and military discipline, Casey lives by action and authenticity.

Take notes. Get ready to question everything.Quotes:"If you want young people to care about anything, it has to matter to their lives when they're young." - Casey Putsch"If there's something that I think needs to be changed, after observing it, and nothing's being done, well, I'll step up and be the guy to change it or make it if need be." - Casey Putsch"You don't actually have to ask permission for it. You can decide to build the life that you want to build." - Matt BeaudreauKey Takeaways:Ask Better Questions: Instead of “What do you want to be when you grow up?” ask, “What problems do you want to solve right now?”Show Your Work, Not Just Degrees: Focus on real-world projects and results — not just credentials.Take Responsibility: If something bothers you, do something about it. Start small, but start.Inspire Young People Through Action: Share your passions in a way they can experience — not just listen to.Find a Way Around the System: If the system won’t change, build something better beside it.Conclusion:Casey Putsch reminds us that we don’t have to wait for permission to lead, build, or create. Real change doesn’t come from following broken systems — it comes from stepping up, thinking differently, and taking action where others stay silent.Whether you're raising kids, mentoring the next generation, or building something of your own — the time to act is now.You don’t need to be an expert. You don’t need to have it all figured out. You just need to care enough to do something.So — what’s one step you’ll take today?

Then identify what boosts it and what drains it. Begin designing your life around protecting and amplifying that energy.· Design a Personal Business Model: Whether you’re employed or self-employed, write down how you create value, how you’re rewarded for it, and how you can scale it. This turns abstract goals into actionable steps.· Test, Tweak, Repeat: Treat life and business decisions like experiments. Don’t fear mistakes—instead, document your assumptions, test them quickly and cheaply, and use failures as feedback.Conclusion:This conversation with Lee Benson is a powerful reminder that you don’t need permission to start—you just need the willingness to struggle, learn, and keep showing up.

Are young people being sold an outdated dream?What if college isn’t the golden ticket we were told it was?What happens when a young person knows they want more—but the traditional path feels like a detour, not a destination? If you’ve ever felt like you're too ambitious for college, this episode is for you.Today’s guest is the brilliant and bold Jorja Leavitt, a serial entrepreneur whose journey epitomizes grit, creativity, and purpose-driven disruption. She’s not just a founder; she’s a problem-solver, a marketplace pioneer, and a reverse logistics trailblazer. After building a Facebook Marketplace-like app that attracted millions before Facebook shut them down, she didn’t quit—she pivoted. That single move birthed a company that picked up and resold bulky items like mattresses and furniture, reshaping how we think about secondhand commerce.We talk entrepreneurship, failure, perseverance, and why embracing AI, not resisting it, is the secret sauce to thriving in today's world. Jorja’s passion for helping ambitious young people find their lane outside the traditional system is infectious—and her story proves that the “safe” path isn’t always the smart one.If you’ve ever asked yourself, “What if I could do something different?”—this is the episode that just might change your life.Quotes:• "If you're willing to be flexible enough and open minded enough and creative enough, there is a solution. It might not be the solution you want." - Jorja Leavitt• "The difference between someone that's successful and unsuccessful is they just don't give up. Don't give up. It's that grit factor." - Jorja Leavitt• "You are your best advocate. Go find the community that you want and like." - Jorja LeavittKey Takeaways:• Rethink the Default Path Ask yourself: Am I choosing college (or any path) because it's right—or just because it's expected? Take 10 minutes to journal what success looks like for you, not for others.• Use AI as Your Superpower, Not a Shortcut Explore how AI can enhance your work, not replace your effort. Pick one free AI tool (like ChatGPT, Notion AI, or Canva Magic Write) and use it to complete a small project this week—resume, portfolio, or even a side hustle plan.• Turn Failure into Feedback Think of one “failure” you’ve experienced. Break it down: What did it teach you? How can it guide your next move? Remember, as Jorja says: "It’s not failure—it’s just a problem you haven’t solved yet."• Take a Micro-Risk Today Apply for something outside your comfort zone: a local internship, a virtual cohort (like Praxis), or pitch a freelance project. Action > perfection.• Audit Your Environment Are you surrounded by people who fuel your ambition or hold it back? Find (or build) one community—online or in person—that shares your drive. Join a local meetup, Discord, or mastermind focused on entrepreneurship or tech.Conclusion:Jorja Leavitt’s journey reminds us that the path to success is rarely straight—and almost never traditional. From being shut down by Facebook to building something even greater, her story is a powerful lesson in resilience, creativity, and the courage to pivot.Whether you're questioning college, dreaming of entrepreneurship, or just trying to figure out what’s next—know this: you don’t have to follow the old map to reach a new destination.The tools are here. The support is out there. And the world needs more people willing to challenge the status quo and create their own lane.So ask yourself: What’s one bold step you can take this week to move toward the life you actually want? Then go take it.This isn’t just an episode—it’s a call to action. And your next chapter starts now.
